Dinamo Zagreb vs Celta Vigo prediction

Dinamo Zagreb come into this one on the back of a 2-1 defeat of a Rijeka side that pipped them to the league title last season. They do, though, remain below Hajduk Split at the top-of-the-table. In the UEFA Europa League, the Croatians have collected an impressive seven points from their three matches thus far.

They now face a Celta Vigo side that, coached by Claudio Giraldez, are one of the most entertaining teams to watch in La Liga. The Galicians have been frustrated by too many draws of late but they managed to finally win a league game at the weekend as they defeated Levante at Estadio Ciutat de Valencia.

Dinamo Zagreb may well have started well this season but they have to be viewed as clear underdogs here with Celta the firm favourites in a potentially entertaining affair.
